When you unlock Bunny in The First Descendant, you’ll gain access to Follow Their Traces, a questline that is exclusive to Bunny. Here’s how to complete all the missions and how to find out what her parents are up to.
This isa very long questthat will take you to many regions throughout The First Descendant. It may be worth focusing on this quest line passively as you naturally unlock more of the game through playing it.

Where to find Bunny’s parents’ records in The First Descendant
For the first part of Bunny’s quest in The First Descendant, you’ll be brought acrossdifferent locationsto find three records. I’ll show you where each of them are.
If you haven’t unlocked the region or location to find the journal, then all you’ll need to do iskeep clearing main missionsuntil you unlock that area.
Bunny’s parent’s records in the Sterile Land
After getting briefed by Alpha on the mission, and once Bunny begrudgingly accepts the mission, you’re tasked with following their traces, starting with the journal that you’re given initially. Their activities lead Bunny to theRestricted Zone in the Sterile Land, where your journey begins.
The game doesn’t help you find the journal entries. However, you are given a clue:“Faint signals are coming from the cliff close to the facility,near the High-power Jammerin the Restricted Zone.”
In the Restricted Zone, there is a mission called “High-powered Jammer,” andupon the nearest cliffcan be found a small blue journal, found exactly where I am in the image below:
Once you’ve got the journal, make sure to read it. You’ll have to return to Alpha in Albion in hopes of tracking down more information.He’ll refer you to Nell.
Unfortunately, neither Alpha nor Nell has access to those records, however, she has tracked down the location of the next journal toVespers in The Ruins, so that’s where we’ll be headed next.
Bunny’s parents’ records in Vespers
After being directed to the Ruins in Vespers, you’ll have to make your way there. You’ll have to hadcleared all of the Sterile Landand then defeated theStunning Beautyto gain access to Vespers. Then, you must clear the first battlefield to gain access to the Ruins.
Once in the Ruins, you can beeline to the first Void Fragment, as that’s where the clue directs us to:“Faint signals are coming from a high-altitude location somewhereclose to the Void Fragmentin the Ruins.”
Once you reach the Void Fragment, you’ll notice a ruin behind it. Walk past the columns onto the platform andgrapple hook to the very top. Walk to the end of the column and you’ll see the journal on the edge, in this exact spot in the map below:
Once you’ve found the journal, read it. You’ll find out that Bunny’s parents were working with Colon, the secret espionage unit.You’ll need to talk to Gleyfor more information.
Head back to Albion and talk to Gley. She’ll deliver some pretty hard news:They joined the Colon Special Forcesto help pioneer a world where Bunny wouldn’t have to worry about any threats or danger.
Bunny presses Gley for anyone who would have information on Colon operations during that time, and it turns out that Sharen had personally worked with them.You must now talk to Sharenwho is also in Albion.
Sharen tells Bunny that she doesn’t know as much as we hoped, as she was only a recruit when working with them. She does, however, point you toEcho Swampafter telling you of one operation they handled regarding a stolen Ancestor Relic.
So off to theDerelict Covert in Echo Swampwe go.
Bunny’s parents’ records in Echo Swamp
To get to the Echo Swamp, you’ll have to clear all of Vespers, which won’t take too long if you focus exclusively on the main missions. Then, you’ll have to fight the Executioner Colossus. Unfortunately, this journal is found in thefinal battlefield you’ll unlock in the Echo Swamp, so you’ll have to clear almost all of that, too.
Once you’ve unlocked the Derelict Covert battlefield in Echo Swamp, you can finally look for the journal. Here’s the clue for this area:“Triangulation results indicate a signal emanating from the northwest end of the Derelict Covert,high above the treetops.”
This one wasinfuriatingto find, but once you know where it is, you can collect it easily. In the north of the Derelict Covert is a mission, calledGhost Marsh. Set a waypoint there and head over.
From this point, you should be able to see agiant tree with a structure around it, to have this view:
Up there is the journal. To get there, look to your left.You’ll see a wooden bridge. Walk across it till you get to a little treehouse area. To the right, you’ll see a blue disk that acts as a lift between where you are now and the treehouse with the journal.
Using the disk elevator, you can safely ascend to the large tree. Use your grapple hook toclimb up the platforms till you get to the roofwith the journal on it, at this location.
With the journal picked up, you may finallyread it to progress. With the journal read, we must now talk to Anais, who was involved in the creation of Bunny’s suit now that we know it’s connected to the relic.
Head back to Albion andtalk to Anais. She’ll mention that she can complete the records with components found in the battlefield the event occured in.
So, naturally, we’ll have togo to Agna Desertand secure some Data Chip Fragments.
Thankfully, as we’ve almost completed the Echo Swamp already, Agna Desert won’t take as long to get to. And at leastwe won’t have to find another journal.
How to finish Bunny’s questline in The First Descendant
Thankfully, the rest of Bunny’s questline in The First Descendant israther straightforward. It may not be easy, and it’ll be a while till you complete it, but you won’t need to find any more journals.
Instead of taking you through all the other steps, as the quest is guided from this point on, I’ll instead give you alist of the remaining stepsso you know what to expect:
Naturally, you’ll have tospeak to Anais and others in Albion between each step. I’m not going to spoil the rest of the story, but now you know exactly what you have to do.
If any one step is challenging, that’s because you’ve got toget stronger. There’s nothing else to it, I’m afraid.
Now that you know what must be done tocomplete Bunny’s Questin The First Descendant, you’ll likely have to get stronger. Make sure you know how tofarm all the research materialsto make grinding easier.
